Could be Semenyo

Sorry, yes it is Semenyo and Wiemann, I misread the original post.

Just gone for City to win and both teams to score at 7-1 - here’s hoping

Potentially a great line up, Pearson deserves big chops for his ambition.   So pleased to see Cam in the team..........hope he scores or sets up the winner COYR's!!!!!!!

Deadest Match Day Thread in a while, nobody cares for City? Or nobody cares for Boro?

Great work as always @Jerseybean

Their thread, just an hour before KO is four pages long.

2-2 Interested to see this Conway for them and Joe Williams who we tried to sign, probably ideal for us in a 4231 now annoyingly

Don't Bristol City always beat us at the Riverside? Anyway, if we win that'll be 6 points before the WC - more than many expected. That's if we win mind, which we won't. Defeat is inevitable.

Not what I meant. Another guess is 3 4 1 2, Scott right, semenyo left, rest obvious.

Everyone was watching the cricket!  Boy, we made hard work after the opening partnership!

Is that Wells and Conway?

Wasn't it the first win there for around 70 or 80 years?

I've just looked it up and it was in 1993, our first ever win at Boro in a competitive match. Won 1-0

1907 Boro 0 - City 2 Division 1,   then that gap until 1993, plenty of draws in between though.

Sky only gave me 6-1 on a city win with goals in both halves

[HOZDA]

A bit surprised/confused with the lineup but maybe that will be the case for Boro too and work in our favour

I trust Nige, let's go! Could really do with 3 points today

[REDOXO]

Wasn’t expecting that line up. But hey, right now I like it. Ask me at 5pm!

No just saving ourselves for the semi final 

[Davefevs]

Anyway, no Crooks or Mowatt in starting xi Ben’s not so much thuggery in their MF!

[miketh2nd]

Hmm I really hope it is a 4 at the back!!  Weiman and scott as wb would be so bizarre .

Their bench looks incredibly strong for a side so far down the table.

[Better Red]

                     Max

    Vyner      Klose      Pring

         Williams       James              Scott                             Seymenyo

                Wiemann

           Wells        Conway      Maybe this line up if we keep 352

I don’t reckon Seymenyo (sic) is playing that wide!

I have faith in whatever team Nige puts out. He knows far more than me. 

You’re sounding more like Robbored every day!

The warm up suggests a back 3, not 4

Although Scott has now joined it - at right back in a 4. So who knows!

Chile Style 3331 maybe??

[cidercity1987]

I can see a horror show coming with that line up

[Bodiesaffer]

Im thinking 4231 with Williams dropping back in 4, and Conway/Weimann playing as the wider forwards who have good work rate and can track back to help. Gives Pring and Vyner license to move forward 

 

Semenyo and Weimann out wide 

[pillred]

Incredible to think a team we outplayed from start to finish, and even who's manager admitted we were the better side have just thrashed the league leaders 5-2! the Championship is one strange league which is why I fully expect us to not only win today but next Sat as well.

NP giving little away in his pre-match interview did at one point say 3 in midfield, we will just have to wait and see... can see a few goals in this game, be good if Semenyo could rediscover his game today.

Be interested in what you’d have done then?

Kept picking Dasilva who hasn’t put in a decent ball in months? Sykes? Martin? King?

Low? Who hasn’t a single minute at this level. Bell?

Those are our other options.
